Cloud Parallel File Storage:Fileset management

Prerequisites

• A CPFS for Lingjun file system is created. For more information, see Create a file system.

Limitations

Create a fileset

1. Log on to the NAS console.

2. In the left-side navigation pane, choose File System > File System List.

3. In the upper-left corner of the page, select the resource group and region of the file system.

5. On the details page of the file system, click the Fileset tab.

6. On the Fileset tab, click Create Fileset.

7. In the Create Fileset dialog box, enter the fileset path and name, and then click OK.

   Parameter	Description
   Fileset Path	The absolute path of the fileset in the file system. The path must meet the following requirements: The path must start and end with a forward slash (/). The path must not already exist. If the path contains multiple directory levels, the parent directory must exist. The fileset path cannot be renamed. The path cannot be a symbolic link. The maximum path depth is 8 levels. The total path length cannot exceed 990 characters. The name of a single directory in the path can be up to 255 characters long and can contain uppercase and lowercase letters, digits, underscores (_), periods (.), and hyphens (-).

1. On the Fileset tab, find the fileset that you want to delete and click Delete in the Actions column.

2. In the dialog box that appears, confirm the information about the fileset to be deleted and click Confirm Deletion.

Edit a fileset

Modify the name of a fileset or configure deletion protection.

1. On the Fileset tab, find the fileset that you want to edit and click Edit in the Actions column.

Fileset capacity monitoring

Fileset capacity monitoring data is available only through the CloudMonitor console or CloudMonitor API operations.

• Use the CloudMonitor console

  1. Log on to the CloudMonitor console.

  5. On the Monitoring Charts page, click the File System Monitoring tab to view the monitoring details of the file system.

     Alert rules can also be configured based on monitoring metrics to track capacity usage or file counts. When a metric reaches the specified threshold, CloudMonitor automatically sends alert notifications for timely response to anomalies. For more information, see Configure a basic alert rule.

     Metric	Metric name	Description
     BMCPFSFsetCapacityLimit	Allocated capacity of a fileset	The maximum storage capacity allocated to the fileset. No new data can be written after this quota is reached.
     BMCPFSFsetCapacityUsed	Used capacity of a fileset	The actual storage capacity used by the fileset.
     BMCPFSFsetInodeLimit	Number of files allocated to a fileset	The maximum number of files and directories that the fileset can contain. No new data can be written after this quota is reached.
     BMCPFSFsetInodeUsed	Number of files used by a fileset	The actual number of files and directories used by the fileset.

• Use the CloudMonitor API

  • DescribeMetricMetaList: Queries the descriptions of time-series metrics that are available in CloudMonitor.

  • DescribeMetricList: Queries the monitoring data of a time-series metric for an Alibaba Cloud service within a specified time period.

  • DescribeMetricLast: Queries the latest monitoring data of a specified object.

  The following table lists the request parameters for CPFS for Lingjun.

  Parameter	Description
